Lab 10/27: Mannitol, MacKonkey, EMB tests
Today we inoculated 3 agar plates, Mannitol, Mackonkey, and EMB. We'll look at the results on Tuesday, and figure out whether our bacteria grows in these conditions or not. All three plates are differential mediums to determine the metabolizing capabilities of our bacteria.
